Common Variable Immunodeficiency Support Group

Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is a group of 20-30 primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) which have a common set of symptoms but with different underlying causes. CVID's underlying causes are different, but the result of these are that the body doesn't produce sufficient antibodies in response to exposure to pathogens.

Octagam Not Raising my IGG enough - anyone else?

I am on Octagam 50g every three weeks and its not raising my IGG enough - still getting constantly sick. I have no adverse reactions so I was trying to stick it out but its really not doing it. Anyone else have this issue? Anyone else switch brands to find out it works better?

Octagam seems to be made by a company headquartered in Switzerland. I looked on their website to see if they have a patient care department, but did not find one. You might want to contact them through their website. Go to http://www.octapharma.com/en/patients/faqs.html
Then select "contact us" and type your questions. I hope this helps. As always, check with your doctor. He/she should be aware of various options.
